    Re: An Idea

    I just watched a most depressing documentary on HBO called GASLAND. It's premise, and evidence, is how fracturing (a method to extract natural gas) is polluting the water and air. I was remined of John Stewart of the Daily Show commenting on a day of prayer to God to help with the pollution of the Gulf. His comment, always witty, was that God did fine in buring that crap a mile under the ocean and 3 miles in the Earth. It was man who unearthed it, not God.

    This got me to thinking about coal, gas and oil being our main energy source. Something which is buried deep in the Earth and is harmful to our environment. I believe science made a wrong turn here, when really the main energy source of the Earth is AIR, WATER and the SUN. Free, nonpolluting, everywhere to be found.

    Oh what fools we mortals be.

    Not all of us, Pat

    When it all falls apart, and we have enough warning signs to say it will, the Abbos will inherit the earth.

    And woe to us if, blinded by illusions,
    We detach ourselves from the dancing cosmos,
    This universal harmony.......Ruth Peel

    Who or what are the Abbos, Felix. I think the meek will inherit the Earth, the one celled bacteria, and we'll all say nice try evolution, better luck next time.

    Re: An Idea

    An ineffective border patrol as evidence for a more kind, gentler evolution. (My Conclusion)

    From today's Detroit Free Press (6/27/10)

    " Primatologists have long known that chimpanzees band together in single-filed lines to patrol the border between two communities. If they come across an unfamiliar male, they will attack him with their teeth, take turns jumping on his body, and pull off his testicles.

    If they encounter an unfimiliar female with a baby, they will rip it out of her hands and kill it, sometimes cannibalizing the infant....."

    At least now, if WE encounter the same situation, we will send them back alive, with children, and their testicles still attached.

    I think the artist may have had a too much of the little green fairy.
